Once I've found out I've failed, I remembered holding in my swelled up tears and pondering over the question, "Why?"

God knew I tried my very best. He knew I needed this in order to take my first step out there in the real world.

I fasted, prayed, and asked so many family members and friends on CC to keep me in their prayers. Yet, at the end, I only came back with a note that said I've failed.

I started feeling really upset with God until something struck me inside. For some reason, I remembered the last lines I said before ending my prayer the morning before my test.


"I will trust in you, God."


Remembering the words I've told God, I started to feel guilty for doubting and not trusting his purposes. I was contradicting my own words and it made me feel so ashamed of myself. I repented afterwards and decided to write my experience of being a failure on here.

It's okay to fail. Behind every failure, there is always a lesson. Each time you fail, remind yourself of Luke 1:37. The words of the Holy Lamb, and the holy promises of the Lord. For he is a true and faithful God. He will never fail you and wants only the best for your future. He is the creator of this universe and mankind. So, when you feel like how I felt earlier, doubting him during your failures, always remember that doubting is not TRUSTING.

TRUST God by giving him glory and praises even through your roughest and most lowest times. I guarantee you he will bless you multiple folds. For I believe that although I've failed, God will switch the tables around and lead me to success because I am a child of the one true King.

I love you all so much and may god bless you all with this short testimony and the beautiful, small lessons I've learned while walking with Jesus Christ.

Amen.




All Glory goes to God. Hehe.

It takes wisdom to learn from your own weaknesses and mistakes and failures, oddly enough I think we learn and grow the most in our failures. It can be so easy to fall apart when we hit rock bottom in our failures and believe me I know the soul crushing guilt and sadness but a wise man once said when you have hit rock bottom the only other way to go is up.

Your testimony is beauty, to be able to express your human weakness and describe your faults and then show how God used it to help you learn and grow is exactly what the church needs. Far to often we hide our weaknesses and failures to show a front of being a strong believer but interestingly enough it's the one who speak of their weaknesses and failures that seem to help the church the most because we all need reminders that we all fall short and we all fall down but God always has his hand reaching for us to help us back up

That's so true. All glory goes to God and him alone. I'm blessed he was able to teach me a lesson while I was in the midst of struggle and doubt. I'm thankful he was able to remind me of his great love. I hope this testimony will encourage you all in faith and hope in our Lord Savior Jesus Christ. He is good, all the time, even to the unfaithful. I'm so glad to chat with you, brother. It's nice fellowshipping with other brothers and sisters in Christ. I'm very happy. May God bless you on your walk with Christ. :)

Hi Niema,

Amen, we can praise Him even when it goes differently from what we expected. He's at work on our behalf and what may seem a failure in our eyes is not necessarily a failure in His because all things work together for the good to those who are called according to His purpose.

What a sweet humble heart. Thanks for sharing. We all rejoice in what God did for you. It's never a mistake the way things turn out. It's such a great feeling when we put our trust in our Heavenly Father. The answer no is just as much a blessing as the answer yes. :)
